| 2 Channel In Ceiling System Thiel "PowerPoint 1.2" is and on ceiling (not in) that angles down. Looks nice and said to sound nice but thiel has really gone down hill after Jim thiel died and the company was sold. Not sure they are still being made. | |
| 3 applications for Jl audio subs crossovers? Audiotomb,I would give JL audio's new crossover a try if it is in your budget. It is an analog/digital hybrid and gets good review (linked below). Bryson also makes one but it only has 12db slopes (I believe) and IMO a crossover with a 24db slope ... | |
| Help - new house - new setup? What was your last room like(size)? Was it small? Maybe you had a bass node that you grew to like. How far from the front and side walls are your speakers now compared to where they were in your old room?Also have you thought about trying a near-f... | |
| 3 applications for Jl audio subs crossovers? Two channel subs would be what I would want (and use) but only if high passing the mains. So an external crossover would be needed. Active digital is the best IMO but you don't want that...Can't see needing 3 subs for surround unless your room is ... | |
| Magico S1 - Dynamics and Amplifier Suggestions "Would you believe that the best match Ive heard for the $185,000/pair Magico Q7 is the $6495 Devialet 120? I know -- hard to fathom."It is an integrated amp with internal DAC. http://www.soundstageultra.com/index.php/features-menu/opinion-menu/494 | |
| Best REL Subwoofer for Magnepan 3.6's Jafant,My system is cheap and simple. Wyred4sounds DAC2 (as dac/pre-amp) and their st500 amp (replaced my mcintosh mc252...). My interconnect/wire are just random kimber and wyred4sounds stuff that I all got used. The thiels have been good (switch... | |
| Best REL Subwoofer for Magnepan 3.6's Scolly,I had the same type of success with a pair of JL audio E112 (with thiel 2.4). I use their built in high pass crossovers between the pre-amp and amp and it sounds great. The key to using subs is a good high pass crossover. I will be using su... | |
| Golden Ear Triton One Speakers $$$ I think the are interesting and I would like to hear them. The box did look a little noisy on the sterophile measurments though. I have two JL audio d112 subs in s 12x15 room and it is not an issue. With volume control on the subs. I am sure these... | |
| front vs rear ported speakers and punch I never liked front ported speakers. I felt like I could alway hear the port but maybe I never heard good ones... | |
| Recommend a subwoofer? I have had good luck with a pair of JL audio E112s. I can't see a need for anything "better". They have built in digital crossovers (high and low pass) and are designed to be connected between the pre-amp and power amp and high pass to the mains a... | |
| What is the best HEAVY METAL speaker? As some one who has been into this hobby for 20 years and started out listening to metal (still go some times) you need to stay away from razor flat speakers, Revel and Thiel are good examples. They sound good when the music has bass recorded in b... | |
| 1 large subwoofer or 2 smaller ones...? But two. One sub always sucks. I use two JL e112 and have tried one for a bit and integration was very bad with one and much better with two. | |

| JL Audio subwoofer crossover - any comments ? I have pair of E112 from JL audio. They have built in crossovers and I and turn the crossover off with a switch and do a direct A/B with and without crossovers. There is no comparison, they are better in everyway using the crossover. | |
| Aerial Speakers You have gone agents the grain of this hobby and upgraded to cheaper speakers. I can respect this but can I ask what was the tought process behind the process. I have heard the Wilson's you owned and also the revel Salon 2 but never anything from ... |
